Hightower: The Trans-Pacific Partnership is not about free trade. It's a corporate coup d'etat

34. (Sigh)..Yeah, I know...

but the thing is that a lot of Republican voters who consider themsleves forgotten about or trampled over by Big Government in the past 30 years are actually just people who don't know who is really stepping on them. The Corporations USE that anger and mis-education to maintain a kind of faux war between Liberal and Conservative, because a unified realization of how badly they are fucking over EVERYONE would be incredibly bad for the Corps.

For me, it's like being mad at someone still living in Plato's Cave for not understanding how Sunlight works, but there's a hole drilled in the ceiling. They know now it's dark, and they are figuring out that that's bad, but they don't know that if they go outside it won't be that way amymore.

I agree the Tea Party is a corporate invention. The people who support it, are not (IMHO). They are just not smart enough to know better at this point. I say we start educating them, and in the meantime, we get every god's-honest, actual LIBERAL elected to Congress that we can.
